Olives and Marinade

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Marinade

In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, red pepper flakes, black peppercorns, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.

2

Add the Olives

Add the mixed olives to the marinade and stir until the olives are well coated with the mixture.

3

Marinate

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the olives and marinade to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Let the olives marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for the best flavor.

4

Serve

Once marinated, serve the olives at room temperature as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy!
